[–] tal@lemmy.today 10 points 2 years ago* (1 child) 5l, just shy of one gallon. 5L can't be shy of a gallon. 4L is more than a gallon. checks Yeah, a gallon is 3.7854118 L. Oh...wait. You're in Europe. I bet that you're thinking of imperial gallons. checks That's about 4.5 L. Still not the case even with imperial gallons. When people are talking about gallons in the US, they won't be using imperial gallons. They're using the US gallon. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] bleistift2@feddit.de 13 points 2 years ago Well, I just typed “1 gallon in liters” into google and took the first number, because I couldn’t be bothered to deal with your system of measurement more than necessary. My point stands regardless of the exact volume of one gallon. OF COURSE THERE IS MORE THAN ONE DEFINITION OF GALLON permalink fedilink source parent
